Share on social media

Corey Allan, Shaun Nona, and Jharal Yow Yeh from the Brisbane Broncos recently paid a visit to Lady Cilento’s Children’s Hospital to help put a smile on the faces of children and their families this Easter.

As part of the ‘Make a Sick Kid Smile’ initiative fronted by hair legend Stefan Ackerie, the Broncos boys teamed up with officers from the Queensland Police Service (QPS), as well as the Easter Bunny himself, to deliver toys, chocolate, and Broncos gear throughout the hospital wards.

Children and their families were excited to be greeted by the group of heroes, who appeared as a surprise to many of the patients. Kids and their parents were happy to meet the Broncos, Easter Bunny, and QPS just as equally, and their days were brightened through cheery conversations as well as surprise chocolates, teddy bears, and signed Broncos gear.

Former Broncos star Jharal Yow Yeh highlighted that giving back to the children and their families while they are experiencing a stay in hospital is very rewarding, and is something he aims to do as frequently as possible.

The Brisbane Broncos will return to Lady Cilento’s Children’s Hospital this December as the Stefan Make A Sick Kid Smile Foundation brings the same cheer to sick kids and their families over the Christmas period.
